Thanks, David - a bit strange indeed; it was an export version of PZL.23 Karaś, produced for Bulgaria. Better engine, larger fuselage - it was looking like a beast. Thanks for comment, glad that you like it 🙂, best regards, Hubert

Besten Dank, Damian 🙂 It is always hard to find an exact match for this, Polish khaki had many variations and shades. Here I'm using Mr.Hobby's -H421 RLM81 Brown Violet 😉 For your Karaś I would recommend Hataka's set (hataka-hobby.com/pro..air-force-paint-set/), Best regards, Hubert

Thanks, Mates 🙂 still a lot to be done, but these Aber and Eduard's etched pieces are a nice addition to this kit indeed. Interesting plane, used by Bulgarians till the end of WW2. A pity we haven't had more of these planes in September'39. Best regards, Hubert

Sure I do, this was only to paint the canopy frames, so that the correct internal colour is visible when finished. When it is dry will spray her with Gunze's surfacer.

Nice one Hubert, can you say more about those Hataka paints? Wondering how do they work out in the field...

The Orange line of Hataka paints are the lacquer based paints, work similarly to Gunze's C line, but are almost odorless. The finish is smooth, satin, dry fast - this was the first time I 've used them, but seems that we will be friends. Thanks for watching and comments 🙂 Best regards, Hubert

Thanks 🙂 Hataka's paints (Orange line) work really well. Now some weathering, clear matt and then the guns and the rest of the details - it should go quickly now, in my case a month or three😉

It is historically accurate. Now, why did the Polish do that? That is another question...

Thanks for comments, Mates! Asymmetrical placement of the insignia was to confuse the enemy about the actual position of the aircraft - here, however, we have one more interesting detail: the chessboard on the left wing is incorrectly rotated. It is effect of rush - the plane was produced for Bulgaria, prepared for delivery. It was repainted just before the takeover by Polish air force after the outbreak of the war. Best! Hubert
